how do you prepare for a big gaming session?

[vintage-x]

Since gta 5 has just come out and theres a few more AAA games coming within the next few months I'm wondering what everyone's routine is for playing an epic session with a new game (maybe even an old one)

I usually start by tidying up (also includes cleaning all my controllers and my keyboard even though I barley e the keyboard), making a pizza pouring a drink then sit back on the couch and play for hours on end.

One of the other things I do is make sure my pc is up to date (same with the consoles)


So guys and girls do you have a set routine for your sessions or not?

 

[Mynight]

Tidy up and shower as I don't know when it will happen again .

 

[NexusK]

Pour some juice, sit on a seat and click a desktop icon. I'm not on a date with the keyboard.

Tie up and gag the wife

 

[MasterOC]

Complete dust down in the office and machine ( but that's everyday regardless )
Tidy the house so I can forget about it
Gaffa tape the wife and kids up and chuck um in the cellar
**** shave and shampoo
Then get beer , and game all night long ....

Ok so only some of that is true .. But which

Gahhhh I completely forgot to mention the whole shower shave and pop (also brush my teeth)

I always make sure everything is fully charged too. There's nothing worse then loosing your controller charge


Oh and finally I spray fabreeze on everything!!!

Well you don't come across as a guy who drinks so I'm gonna say everything is true apart from that

[Kosmiche]

Get a drink and play...thats about it.

Use the loo, eat/drink something (or have a cup of tea while playing), wear comfortable clothes and keep warm, make sure pc area is setup comfortably (ie no glare from lights) so don't have to get up for unimportant reasons.

 

[tbyeah]

Get a bottle of water and that's about it

It's been too long since I've done a gaming session into the early hours of the morning. My ritual is normally all chores done first, sit down with a beer or brew, turn the lights down.

4th post in and it went dark really fast!

For me its, drink, snacks, phone on silent, curtains drawn.

 

[ADT]

Sit on chair
Play game
Get on with my life when it's time to stop playing

I'm not going on a date

 

[matt_fsr]

Fap beforehand.

Less distractions then.

 

[FARGO]

I mostly play at night, mostly.

 

[arc@css]

Main requirements are water / play in afternoon or evening.

 

[FloppyPoppy]

Tidy up so I have space to make mess so my experience isn't interupted as badly.

 

[savagesam117]

Sit down, can't do a long session standing!

Drink full, vape charged, lights off.
